Today's Pokemon Card Review is of Shinx from the BREAKpoint set. Shinx is a basic, lightning type Pokemon card with an HP of 60. It has a x2 weakness to fighting type Pokemon, a -20 resistance to metal type Pokemon, and a one colorless energy card retreat cost. Shinx does not have an Ability but it does have two moves. The first move that this card has is called Roar, and for one colorless energy cards this move makes your opponent switch their active Pokemon with one of their benched Pokemon. Shinx's second move is called Flop, and for one colorless energy card this move does 10 damage.
Pokemon Card Strategy:
So as far as strategy goes, since Shinx is a basic Pokemon card with a Stage 1 evolution in Luxio, and a Stage 2 evolution in Luxray, which I'll be reviewing the next couple of days, you'll more than likely want to use some of those Pokemon with this card, however, since I have not reviewed any of those cards yet, I will just act like Shinx does not have any evolution forms and that it will be used on its own. On its own, this card could be used as a starter type Pokemon in a deck since it requires any type energy card to attack, and only one energy card to perform either move. If you start the game with this card in the active Pokemon spot you'll want to use Flop a couple of turns, then possibly the turn before you evolve Shinx, you would use Roar to get your opponent to put a Pokemon into play that may get knocked out by Luxio, or to just put a Pokemon in play that isn't set up yet.
Pokemon Card Rating:
I would give this card a 3 out of 5 rating. In my opinion, this is a very average Basic Pokemon card from the BREAKpoint set. Really no downfalls with this card, just nothing too great. This card has an average HP, low retreat cost, and two quick moves. So if you're building a lightning type deck, this card is definitely worth a look.
